2008 UT Tyler Integration Bee Winners Announced

Three University of Texas at Tyler students received cash prizes at the 2008 Integration Bee recently held on campus, Dr. Jennifer McLoud-Mann, UT Tyler associate professor of mathematics, announced. Lee Trammell of Tyler, a freshman double-majoring in mathematics and computer science, won the $75 first-place cash prize. Sophomore civil engineering major Justin Schminkey of Tyler placed second and won $50. Jiro Furukawa of Tyler, a senior double-majoring in mathematics and computer science, placed third and received $30. The Integration Bee is similar to a spelling bee; however, instead of spelling words students work math integration problems. "The problems used for this event are the techniques that a student learns in calculus I and II which involve u-substitution, integration by parts, trigonometric substitution and partial fraction decomposition," McLoud-Mann said. Undergraduate students who are currently enrolled or have completed the university's calculus II course are able to compete. Approximately 70 UT Tyler students participated in this year's event, which was sponsored by the UT Tyler Math Club.

Bullard is ready to compete for a playoff spot in the District of Doom.

Once again, we are giving you two Red Zone rundowns for the price of one. Just like in Lindale, the Bullard players are learning a new head coach during fall camp. East Texas native Scott Callaway is now in charge of the Panthers program.

With the smallest enrollment in District 17-5A, and really across the entire classification, Lindale could use that as an excuse for a sub-par season. But under defensive coordinator, turned head coach Chris Cochran, that won't be the case.

"A lot of people thought tonight was about peaceful protesters countering something," event speaker DG Montalvo said. "But it wasn't. It was about getting together and encouraging each other without ideology."
